Today was the last day before Round 7 of the WORCS series gets geared up in approx. two weeks for any last minute training.
We took advantage of a much needed cooler weather today to rdie our home track -Caly Peak Mx Park,which has to be one of the roughest times there I have seen !!
It was so dry, dusty,jumps were in bad shape ,just plain KNARLY...


PUUUURRRFECT training track for a WORCS race!:D
I didint even waste my time on some of the photos due to all the dust, but everyone had a great day of riding ,training ,tire experiementing,gearing and shaved some lap times .
Kelsey done some sweet holeshots today and finally got the feel of the gearing .
Heres a few shots of the day.

HAHA... I likethispic for some reason.
Maybe its cause she looks likes she means busniess threw her goggles :p :macho

MY Lil man Brandon was AWESOME today and rode HARd and fast!
The MX section was in really bad shape today and still managed to keep up with his Dad on his quad in the top of 3rd gear on his 450!
Kelsey and him were in 4th (hers in 5th gear)
:blah:

Today was about speed shifting and how to get out of the hole quicker.
Kelsey shaved off 20 seconds on her lap time today

That's so cool. The family that rides together, stays together!! It's about time everything went well for you, a while back you were about ready to quit with the parts breakin, shipping problems, etc glad to see you guys had a good day with no problems.

WEll.. We will see how things go.. She blew up the motor the last race,he blew two motors two races before that so who knows what may blow the next one :p... we might be saying we quit after the next round .. :p LOL
We have been spending the last two months trying to build two more motors(one for each of them,one is still completly stock) so we will have someting to fall back on.
We just play it week by week.

I think the only down side to the wk ends riding was we found a million of them thorns (aka goat heads and punture weeds) stuck in all the tires and Im not sure how to remove them from the tires except by hand !:huh :scary:
Those are the last things I want making there way to my yard.
Any ideas? This could take awhile .lol

We did. Im hoping the wk end will make a difference in lap times at the next race.
You know how it is... you always do much better when its play time and your mind goes blank when your on the line :p lol

I didnt feel too well so I opted to just shoot photos and watch everyone else ride.
